- the advantages achieved by the invention lie in particular in the alloying effect of a balanced nitrogen concentration. It has surprisingly been found that a particularly high output can be achieved in the production of parts. Although there are no nitride precipitates during hot forming, the formability of the material is suddenly deteriorated when the forging heat fluctuates at levels above 0.29% by weight nitrogen. In the narrow concentration range from 0.17 to 0.29% by weight N, separation of associated phases can be prevented in a simple manner if the further alloying elements are present in the intended content ranges. Nitrogen, nickel and molybdenum also synergistically provide extremely high resistance to pitting.
- the upper limit of the carbon content of the alloy for corrosion-chemical reasons is 0.03% by weight, a further reduction of which increases the corrosion resistance of the material, in particular pitting and stress corrosion cracking.
- the silicon content in the material according to the invention should not exceed 0.89% by weight, for reasons of corrosion chemistry and in particular because of the low magnetic permeability.
- the nitrogen solubility of the alloy and the austenite stabilization are promoted by manganese.
- manganese levels are 4.49% by weight and nickel is introduced into the alloy.
- a minimum content of 0.51% by weight of manganese is required for effective sulfur binding.
- chromium is the basis for the formation of a passive layer on the surface of the parts.

Description
Korrosionsbeständiger Werkstoff Corrosion resistant material
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Werkstoff mit großer Korrosionsbeständigkeit in Medien mit hoher Chloridkonzentration, geeignet für Einrichtungen in der Ölfeldtechnik, insbesondere für Bohrstrangkomponenten, bestehend aus den Elementen Kohlenstoff (C), Silizium (Si), Mangan (Mn), Chrom (Cr), Molybdän ( Mo), Nickel (Ni), Kupfer (Cu), Stickstoff (N), Eisen (Fe) sowie herstellungsbedingten Verunreinigungen, welcher Werkstoff warmverformt und nach einer Abkühlung kaltverformt ist.The invention relates to a material with great corrosion resistance in media with a high chloride concentration, suitable for devices in oilfield technology, in particular for drill string components, consisting of the elements carbon (C), silicon (Si), manganese (Mn), chromium (Cr), molybdenum (Mo), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), nitrogen (N), iron (Fe) and manufacturing-related impurities, which material is thermoformed and cold-formed after cooling.
Korrosionsbeständige Werkstoffe, die paramagnetisches Verhalten zeigen und hohe Festigkeit aufweisen, sind für Einrichtungen in der Ölfeldtechnik, insbesondere für Bohrstrangkomponenten, verwendbar. Allerdings werden immer höhere Anforderungen an die Teile und immer strengere Maßstäbe an die Werkstoffe gestellt bzw. angelegt.Corrosion-resistant materials that show paramagnetic behavior and have high strength can be used for equipment in oilfield technology, especially for drill string components. However, ever higher demands are placed on the parts and ever stricter standards for the materials.
Um Richtungsmessungen bei einem Abteufen bzw. Niederbringen einer Bohrung mit einer notwendigen Genauigkeit durchführen zu können, muß der Werkstoff eine Permeabilität von kleiner als 1,005 haben.The material must have a permeability of less than 1.005 in order to be able to carry out directional measurements with a necessary accuracy when drilling or sinking a hole.
Eine hohe mechanische Festigkeit, insbesondere ein hoher 0,2% Dehnwert, ist im Hinblick auf eine vorteilhafte anlagentechnische Konzeption und auf eine hohe Betriebssicherheit der Teile erforderlich, weil die Beanspruchungen derselben bis zu den Grenzwerten der jeweiligen Werkstoffbelastbarkeit vorgesehen und immer größere Bohrtiefen erforderlich sind. Weiters ist eine Kerbschlagzähigkeit des Materials wichtig, weil oft schlagartig oder stoßartig hohe Belastungen von den Teilen ertragen werden müssen.A high mechanical strength, in particular a high 0.2% elongation value, is necessary with regard to an advantageous system design and high operational reliability of the parts, because the stresses on the parts are intended up to the limit values of the respective material load capacity and ever greater drilling depths are required. Furthermore, a notched impact strength of the material is important because the parts have to endure high loads suddenly or suddenly.
Insbesondere für Bohrstrangteile und Schwerstangen ist in vielen Fällen eine hohe Dauerwechselfestigkeit von Bedeutung, weil bei einer Rotation der Teile bzw. der Schwerstangen schwellende oder wechselnde Beanspruchungen vorliegen können.A high fatigue strength is of importance in many cases, in particular for drill string parts and drill collars, because swelling or changing stresses can be present when the parts or drill collars rotate.
Die Teile werden oft bei niedrigen Temperaturen montiert oder eingesetzt, so daß auch der Zahigkeitsubergangstemperatur (FATT) des Werkstoffes ein hoher Stellenwert zukommt.The parts are often assembled or used at low temperatures, so that The toughness transition temperature (FATT) of the material is also of great importance.
Entscheidende Bedeutung besitzt das Korrosionsverhalten für in der Ölfeldtechnik verwendete Teile, das sind einerseits die Spannungsrißkorrosion (SCC) und andererseits die Lochkorrosion ( Pitting, CPT).Corrosion behavior is of crucial importance for parts used in oilfield technology, that is stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and pitting corrosion (pitting, CPT).
Wie aus obigen Darlegungen hervorgeht, sind Werkstoffe mit großer Korrosionsbeständigkeit in Medien mit hoher Chloridkonzentration, die für Einrichtungen in der Ölfeldtechnik geeignet sind, gleichzeitig einer Vielzahl von hohen Beanspruchungen ausgesetzt.As can be seen from the above explanations, materials with high corrosion resistance in media with a high chloride concentration, which are suitable for devices in oil field technology, are simultaneously exposed to a large number of high loads.
Die Erfindung setzt sich zum Ziel, einen paramagnetischen Werkstoff mit hoher Dehngrenze, hoher Kerbschlagzähigkeit und hoher Dauerwechselfestigkeit sowie einer niedrigen Zahigkeitsubergangstemperatur zu erstellen, der gleichzeitig korrosionsbeständig, insbesondere beständig gegen Lochkorrosion, in chloridhaltigen Medien ist.The aim of the invention is to create a paramagnetic material with a high yield strength, high impact strength and high fatigue strength as well as a low toughness transition temperature, which is at the same time corrosion-resistant, in particular resistant to pitting, in chloride-containing media.
Dieses Ziel wird bei einem Werkstoff der eingangs genannten Art dadurch erreicht, daß diese im wesentlichen aus den Elementen in Gew.-%This goal is achieved in the case of a material of the type mentioned at the outset in that it essentially consists of the elements in% by weight
Kohlenstoff (C) kleiner/gleich 0,03Carbon (C) 0.03 or less

Eisen (Fe) Rest sowie herstellungsbedingte Verunreinigungen besteht, welcher Werkstoff im nitridausscheidungsfreien Zustand und ohne ausgeschiedene vergesellschafteteIron (Fe) rest as well as production-related impurities exist, which material in the nitride excretion-free state and without excreted socialized
Phasen warmverformt und nach einer Abkühlung im ferritfreien Zustand kaltverformt ist und eine Permeabilität von kleiner als 1,0048 eine Dehngrenze (R^.,) von größer als 710 N/mm2 eine Kerbschlagzähigkeit von über 60 J eine Dauerwechselfestigkeit von größer +310 N/mm3 bei N = 107 Lastwechsel und eine Zähigkeitstemperatur von unter -28°C ( FATT) aufweist.Phases are thermoformed and cold-formed after cooling in the ferrite-free state and a permeability of less than 1.0048 a proof stress (R ^.,) of greater than 710 N / mm 2 a notched impact strength of over 60 J, a fatigue strength of greater than +310 N / mm 3 at N = 10 7 load changes and a toughness temperature of below -28 ° C (FATT).
Die durch die Erfindung erreichten Vorteile liegen insbesondere in der legierungstechnischen Wirkung einer ausgewogenen Stickstoffkonzentration. Es wurde überraschend gefunden, daß bei der Herstellung von Teilen ein besonders hohes Ausbringen erreicht werden kann. Obwohl bei einer Warmverformung keinerlei Nitridausscheidungen gegeben selfTKönήen, wird die Verformbarkeit des Werkstoffes bei schwankender Schmiedehitze bei Gehalten über 0,29 Gew.-% Stickstoff sprunghaft verschlechtert. Auch kann im engen Konzentrationsbereich von 0,17 bis 0,29 Gew.-% N eine Ausscheidung von vergesellschafteten Phasen auf einfache Weise verhindert werden, wenn die weiteren Legierungselemente in den vorgesehenen Gehaltsbereichen vorliegen. Stickstoff, Nickel und Molybdän erbringen dabei auch synergetisch eine äußerst hohe Resistenz gegen Lochkorrosion (Pitting).The advantages achieved by the invention lie in particular in the alloying effect of a balanced nitrogen concentration. It has surprisingly been found that a particularly high output can be achieved in the production of parts. Although there are no nitride precipitates during hot forming, the formability of the material is suddenly deteriorated when the forging heat fluctuates at levels above 0.29% by weight nitrogen. In the narrow concentration range from 0.17 to 0.29% by weight N, separation of associated phases can be prevented in a simple manner if the further alloying elements are present in the intended content ranges. Nitrogen, nickel and molybdenum also synergistically provide extremely high resistance to pitting.
Mit 0,03 Gew.-% ist der Kohlenstoffgehalt der Legierung aus korrosionschemischen Gründen nach oben begrenzt, wobei eine weitere Senkung desselben die Korrosionsbeständigkeit des Werkstoffes, insbesondere die Loch-und Spannungsrißkorrosion, erhöhen.The upper limit of the carbon content of the alloy for corrosion-chemical reasons is 0.03% by weight, a further reduction of which increases the corrosion resistance of the material, in particular pitting and stress corrosion cracking.
Der Siliziumgehalt soll beim erfindungsgemäßen Werkstoff 0,89 Gew.-%, aus korrosionschemischen Gründen und insbesondere der niedrigen magnetischen Permeabilität wegen, nicht überschreiten.The silicon content in the material according to the invention should not exceed 0.89% by weight, for reasons of corrosion chemistry and in particular because of the low magnetic permeability.
Die Stickstoff löslichkeit der Legierung und die Austenitstabilisierung werden durch Mangan gefördert. Allerdings müssen im Hinblick auf eine Verhinderung von Lochkorrosion die Mangangehalte mit 4,49 Gew.-% nach oben hin beschränkt und dafür Nickel in die Legierung eingeführt werden. Ein Mindestgehalt an 0,51 Gew.-% Mangan ist für eine wirkungsvolle Schwefelabbindung erforderlich.The nitrogen solubility of the alloy and the austenite stabilization are promoted by manganese. However, with a view to preventing Pitting corrosion restricts the manganese levels to 4.49% by weight and nickel is introduced into the alloy. A minimum content of 0.51% by weight of manganese is required for effective sulfur binding.
Eines der besonders wichtigen Legierungselemente im Hinblick auf den Korrosionswiderstand ist Chrom, weil Chrom die Grundlage für die Bildung einer Passivschicht an der Oberfläche der Teile darstellt. Um ein gegebenenfalls stellenweises Durchbrechen dieser Schicht, in Synergiewirkung mit den übrigen Legierungselementen, insbesondere Mo und N in hohem Maße zu verhindern, sind Gehalte von mindestens 25,1 Gew.% Cr erforderlich. Durch höhere Gehalte als 38,9 Gew.-% steigt die Gefahr einer Auscheidung von intermetallischen Phasen.One of the most important alloying elements in terms of corrosion resistance is chromium, because chromium is the basis for the formation of a passive layer on the surface of the parts. Contents of at least 25.1% by weight of Cr are necessary in order to largely prevent this layer from possibly breaking through, in synergy with the other alloying elements, in particular Mo and N. Levels higher than 38.9% by weight increase the risk of intermetallic phases being eliminated.
Wenn auch das Legierungslemente Molybdän äußerst wichtig für eine Beständigkeit des Werkstoffes gegen Spalt- und Lochkorrosion ist, sollte der Gehalt 5,9 Gew.-% nicht überschreiten, weil dann eine Neigung zur Bildung von vergesellschafteten Phasen sprunghaft steigt. Niedrigere Gehalte als 2,1 Gew.-% verschlechtern das Korrosionsverhalten des Werkstoffes überproportional.Even though the alloying element molybdenum is extremely important for the resistance of the material to crevice and pitting corrosion, the content should not exceed 5.9% by weight, because then the tendency towards the formation of associated phases increases suddenly. Levels lower than 2.1% by weight deteriorate the corrosion behavior of the material disproportionately.
Das Legierungselement Nickel ist in den vorgesehenen Konzentrationen wichtig zur Stabilisierung des kubisch flächenzentrierten Atomgitters, also für geringe Permeabilität, und interaktiv mit Chrom und Molybdän wirkungsvoll für eine Vermeidung der Lochkorrosion. Bis 38,9 Gew.-% werden die Zähigkeit, die FATT und die Dauerwechselfestigkeit vorteilhaft angehoben. Bei einem Unterschreiten von 22,9 Gew.-% verringert sich in zunehmendem Maße der stabilisierende Effekt hinsichtlich der Korrosion, insbesondere der Spannungsrißkorrosion, in chloridhaltigen Medien und betreffend die magnetischen Werte bei der Kaltverformung; es erhöht sich also die Neigung zur Ausbildung von Zonen mit Verformungsmartentsit.The alloying element nickel is important in the intended concentrations for stabilizing the face-centered cubic atomic lattice, i.e. for low permeability, and interactively with chromium and molybdenum is effective for avoiding pitting corrosion. Up to 38.9% by weight, the toughness, the FATT and the fatigue strength are advantageously increased. If the value falls below 22.9% by weight, the stabilizing effect with regard to corrosion, in particular stress corrosion cracking, in chloride-containing media and with regard to the magnetic values during cold working is increasingly reduced; the tendency to form zones with deformation martensite increases.
Zur Steigerung der Korrosionsbeständigkeit ist auch ein Kupfergehalt in Grenzen der Legierung vorgesehen wenn auch die Wirkung dieses Elementes verschiedentlich in Frage gestellt wird. Wie früher erwähnt, ist der Stickstoffgehalt synergetisch auf die übrige Legierungszusammensetzung abgestimmt. Dieser Gehalt von 0,17 bis 0,29 Gew.-% besitzt den weiteren Vorteil, daß ein Block unter Atmosphärendruck erstarren gelassen werden kann, ohne daß Gaseinschlüsse durch eine Überschreitung der Löslichkeitsgrenze bei der Erstarrung in diesem gebildet werden.In order to increase the corrosion resistance, a copper content is also provided within the limits of the alloy, although the effect of this element is questioned in various ways. As mentioned earlier, the nitrogen content is synergistically matched to the rest of the alloy composition. This content of 0.17 to 0.29% by weight has the further advantage that a block can be solidified under atmospheric pressure without gas inclusions being formed by exceeding the solubility limit during solidification.
Auf einem besonders hohem Niveau können die magnetischen, die mechanischen und insbesondere die Werte der Korrosionsbeständigkeit des Werkstoffes eingestellt werden, wenn dieser im wesentlichen aus den Elementen in Gew.-%The magnetic, mechanical and in particular the corrosion resistance values of the material can be set at a particularly high level if the material consists essentially of the elements in% by weight.

Hohe mechanische Eigenschaftswerte bei einer relativen magnetischen Permeabilität von 1.004 und kleiner werden erreicht, wenn der Werkstoff im ausscheidungsfreien Zustand mindestens 3,6-fach warmverformt und bei einer Temperatur von 100 bis 590°C, vorzugsweise von 360 bis 490°C, mit einem Umformgrad von kleiner als 38% , vorzugsweise von 6 bis 19 %, kaltverformt ist. Erfindungsgemäß weist der Werkstoff ein Lochkorrosionspotential in neutraler Lösung bei Raumtemperatur von größer als 1100 mVH/1000 ppm Chloride und/oder 1000 mVH/80000 ppm Chloride auf.High mechanical property values with a relative magnetic permeability of 1.004 and less are achieved if the material is thermoformed at least 3.6 times in the precipitation-free state and at a temperature of 100 to 590 ° C, preferably 360 to 490 ° C, with a degree of deformation of less than 38%, preferably from 6 to 19%, is cold worked. According to the invention, the material has a pitting corrosion potential in neutral solution at room temperature of greater than 1100 mVH / 1000 ppm chlorides and / or 1000 mVH / 80,000 ppm chlorides.

The test results of the materials can be found in Table 2, the results of which are briefly discussed below.
Die Legierungen 1 bis 3 weisen geringe Stickstoffgehalte auf, zeigen deshalb keine gewünschte Verfestigung bei einer Kaltverfomung, wie aus den R^- Werten hervorgeht, und auch für die Dauerwechselfestigkeit wurden niedrige Zahlenwerte (in der Tabelle nicht angegeben) von 1 270, 210 und 290 N/mm2 ermittelt. Korrosionschemisch sind weder die SCC- noch die CPT-Werte ausreichend, was insbesondere auf jeweils niedrige Mo-Gehalte und beim Werkstoff 2 auf einen niedrigen Cr-Gehalt zurückzuführen ist.Alloys 1 to 3 have low nitrogen contents, therefore do not show any desired hardening during cold deformation, as can be seen from the R ^ values, and low numerical values (not shown in the table) of 1,270, 210 and 290 were also used for the fatigue strength N / mm 2 determined. Neither the SCC nor the CPT values are sufficient in terms of corrosion chemistry, which can be attributed in particular to the low Mo content and, in the case of material 2, to a low Cr content.
Die Legierungen 4 und 5 besitzen eine nicht ausreichend hohe und eine überhöhte Stickstoffkonzentration, was zu höheren Streckgrenzenwerten führt und auch den Wert der Biegewechselfestigkeit ( + 308, 340 N/mm2) anhebt. Auf Grund eines geringen Cr-Gehaltes ist beim Werkstoff 4 ein nachteiliges DUAL-Mikrogefüge (Anätzungen an den Korngrenzen) gegeben, wobei weiter anzumerken ist, daß auch der Werkstoff 5 trotz jeweils ausreichender Mo-Konzentrationen der geringeren Cr-Gehalte wegen, die Anforderungen an die Korrosionsbeständigkeit nicht erfüllt. Die Ergebnisse der Legierungen A bis E zeigen, daß die Stickstoffgehalte zu einer gewünschten Verfestigung durch eine Kaltumformung führen und die jeweiligen Konzentrationen von Stickstoff, Nickel und Molybdän synergetisch eine hohe Korrosionsbeständigkeit des Werkstoffes in chloridhaltigen Medien, insbesondere einen hohen Widerstand gegen Pitting, bewirken. Alloys 4 and 5 have an insufficiently high and an excessive nitrogen concentration, which leads to higher yield strength values and also increases the value of the fatigue strength (+ 308, 340 N / mm 2 ). Due to a low Cr content, material 4 has a disadvantageous DUAL microstructure (etchings at the grain boundaries), although it should also be noted that material 5 also meets the requirements despite the sufficient Cr concentrations due to the lower Cr contents does not meet the corrosion resistance. The results of alloys A to E show that the nitrogen contents lead to a desired hardening by cold working and the respective concentrations of nitrogen, nickel and molybdenum synergistically bring about a high corrosion resistance of the material in chloride-containing media, in particular a high resistance to pitting.
